Check the oil level daily before starting the engine and ensure that the
correct oil level is maintained. Refer to-‘Before Starting the Mower’
for oil checking and filling instructions.
Change the engine oil after the first 5 hours of operation and thereafter
according to the ‘Maintenance Schedule’:-
1. Drain fuel by running the engine until the fuel tank is empty.
2. Remove the spark plug lead.
3. Allow the engine to cool.
4. Drain the oil while the engine is warm (not hot).
5. Tip the mower over on to its left hand side thus ensuring that
the air cleaner is kept uppermost to prevent engine damage.
6. Remove the oil filler dipstick and drain the oil into a suitable
container.
7. Refill with new oil of the recommended SAE viscosity grade.
(Refer to-‘Before Starting the Mower’)
To service the air cleaner, loosen the two screws (1) and remove cover
(2). Carefully remove pre-cleaner (3) and cartridge (4) wash in a solu-
tion of liquid detergent and water. Allow to air dry thoroughly before
fitting.
If very dirty, replace.
- Do not use petroleum solvents.
- Do not use pressurised air.
- Do not oil the cartridge.
After servicing, install the pre-cleaner and cartridge in the assembly
base (5). Replace the cover and securely tighten the screw to the base.
